I think Joe Grado would have been totally against anything other than flats on his HP1000 series. He designed them to be as neutral and natural as possible. To me anything different than the flats would ruin that goal and turn a true classic into something totally not meant to be. Just something I feel very strongly about. Not as important the beautiful balanced look would be totally ruined.Do you find the upper mid too tilted up with salad bowl? I have tried salad bowl on PS500, HP1000 and HF2 and none of them sounded right with them.
Also, where did you get the headband?
I currently have a pristine pair of HP2 phones for sale in the classified section and am including two brand new pairs of Grado flats so a possible buyer will be set for some time listening to a classic as it was designed to be heard.
